Cooking Instructions

Tips & Secrets

  • Never soak mushrooms in water as they absorb moisture like sponges; instead, wipe them with a damp paper towel.
  • Sautéing mushrooms on high heat initially helps them brown perfectly without becoming rubbery.
  • If using fresh peas, blanch them separately before adding to the curry to ensure they cook evenly with the mushrooms.
  • Adding a pinch of crushed kasuri methi at the end provides a lovely earthy aroma that complements the mushrooms.
